I don't understand why she has to marry Naveen and work In London to repay the amount given by him? Instead they can sell the house and live in a rented house. She can do part time job. Both Prerna and Shivani can take tuitions for children and pay the rent.His brother will also help her

Yes kasauti lacks good creatives and director ...if u see kuch rang you wont believe it was her first show when she even did not knew that much hindi ...but still she did her best ..so instead of doing masti on sets ...i think her co actors also need to guide her ...also this director he is not doing good job ..Ekta shud hire Noel Smith from kuch rang ...first thing he will do he may throw script of the show...only that can be a lifesaver for the show 😆

Exactly 😆 when I said bland I meant that one shocked expression she has for every scene. I have not seen her previous show so my judgement is based on what I have seen of her in kasauti. She probably needs a good director and a good script to bring out the best in her. Kasauti sadly lacks both

I understand the frustration and anger of the viewers about Prerna's decision. As we are all financially independent, this decision seems stupid. But for a financially dependent poor person, the outlook can be different. I do not live in India, but I know a considerable percentage live under poverty lines. For money, they have to compromise on their life, sacrifice their desire even today.

We are infuriated because it is not a simple marriage to an older guy. If that was the case, Prerna in Season1 married an older guy BAjaj and was happy with him. Here we know Naveen babu has a wife and is into S** racket, which Pre does not know or does not believe.

However I would not wish the serial to be over. We have not yet seen the love story between Anu and Pre. Even without much encouragement from Prerna, Anu has managed to fall head over heels in love with Prerna, but Prerna has so far checked herself. We just got a glimpse of her love in the haldi imagination scene yesterday. Once she starts adoring Anu openly, and Anu reads that in her eyes, the story will be beautiful. So lets us just give our self a little more time .. a pause before the judgement!😊

I have said earlier too , Erica needs a solid BTS team , she herself can't bring that depth through her acting . She needs a Guidance who can help her understand the emotions , her own interpretation levels are Low .

Yes She was BLANK in the Thappad scene , and so many more . I remember I had mentioned this somewhere in the forum that Shivam looked more concerned for Anurag then Prerna . Prerna was like a fool standing there and watching Drama , there was not a leg movement even from her side to go towards Anurag .
That guy is freaking taking that a slap feat for you , and you look so DISINTERESTED. I really feel thsi lovestory is One-Sided .
And Sorry but she lacks screen presence also big time . In many moments I have seen her blending in the background.

@red - As much as I want to consider that justification, I find it hard to disagree. Not because the reasoning doesn't make sense, but because the portrayal of the Sharma family is so.

For viewers to understand and empathize with Prerna's situation, it is also necessary to see their STRUGGLE. All I see is flashy dresses, opulent homes (Sharmas too), generally great standard of living, jewellery and shopping - a standard most middle class families will find it difficult to maintain.

Either the makers could've scripted a different reason for Prerna's decision to marry an older man or taken care to portray the setup as such that it is BELIEVABLE.

At the moment, it is not!

@ blue - I disagree. None of us knew Madhuri was his first wife or that they run a sex racket together, until much later. All we knew and could see was Naveen's creepiness from day one. That was one of the key reasons behind viewers' objection to the marriage.

Secondly, but MORE IMPORTANT than the first one...this is a reboot of the original show and we expect the female lead will not succumb to regressive attitudes and circumstances as happened in the original. To see Prerna LITERALLY SURRENDER herself to this creep, when she couldv'e thought of alternatives - taking a bank loan, or from a friend, tell her parents, discuss it with Anurag, start working part-time or well, loads of other ways to go about this

She chose to simply give up, sit and dream about Anurag, ditch his well-meaning advice and even the PROOF he has attempted to show her, hate on Naveen but not lift a finger to actually get herself out of this mess. Which thinking woman even does this???

Had I seen NO OTHER RECOURSE, I may have swallowed this bitter pill - of her marrying a certified creep like Naveen, but not now. Just too hard to do so.

@maroon - that's what I'm wondering - How? And why?

@pink - You see it as love? I don't see it as such. I see her as extremely weak, quite resolute (and incorrectly so, considering someone like Anu is trying to make her see sense) and deep down somewhere I feel it's a one-sided love story...with Anu pining for her and Prerna falling into traps because she refuses to see sense and would rather be a symbol of maryrdom!

Judgment is called for, because we are, after all, the viewers..we invest our time and money, and to have the makers insult our intelligence every day, despite promising us sensible entertainment, is no less than manipulation. We're not asking for all the cards to be laid out in the beginning itself, the least we can ask for is a story and characters that fit in with the world we're living in with today!
